The new Z3 is finally home
 

Just got it back from Bill Brewsters shop where they did some clean up work, gaskets, hoses, brakes etc. Took some pictures before the Global Warming starts again this afternoon, supposed to get a bunch of it tonight and tomorrow.
It looks big next to the Vanagon-for sale- but an optical thing. I like it.

I always loved those things. Enjoy it.

Nice, any mods or is it stock?

I apologize for mocking you when you first posted pics ot the cars arrival... jealousy is such an ugly emotion.

Afterward I did an Internet search was surprised to find that if I save a few bucks maybe in a few years I could afford one myself.

Enjoy it in good health!

Gorgeous! One of my all-time favorites!

mmmm red.

Nice car But i will forever think of them as clown shoes. Sorry. :)

love it.

Totally stock.
I didn't take offense at all, I have really have been mocked here. This 2001 is less expensive than a 2001 Porsche. Not as fast, but quirky, I like them. About 230hp and about 3000lbs. This now has what could be considered in Porsche terms a re seal of the engine. Every gasket, hose, belt, line, etc now is new and the car has 62k miles. It started raining, but you know that, so I put it away. I have only driven it 25 miles.
I hope it works good for a couple years. Buy my van.

Reds OK, I just don't have this one anymore.

Ahh I want an M Coupe/Z3 Coupe badly! Someday...

Congrats.

Did you bring it to Cars & Coffee this morning??

Sweet!

I overslept, I woke up 3-4 ish and the Global Warming was still coming down, I went back to sleep and didn't wake up till 6:30 and the sun was out. I went to the local Dana Point gathering. Not a lot of cars, but hung with the ones there for awhile. No roadsters. No other Z3s.

everything old is (sort of) new again!!
